    Who cares if we derail a thread, you need to get over that: this ain't the army. Besides, if EV's caused Covid and now another bird flu inquiring minds want to know.

    Damn, so I google it and twerking attacks really are a thing. https://abc7news.com/twerking-dancing-caught-on-camera-sexual-abuse/1079390/ But just imagine you're the dude and a cop walks in and the ladies start screaming bloody murder.

    That was a Royal we.

    Because as vile and odious as Trump is, Biden is older and Kamala is blacker and a female. Voting for Trump, or just not voting, is a no brainer.

    Ken, that was a cruel reminder and you know it. Thank you. So many milestones and memories those parents were robbed of that can never be made right by thoughts and prayers that expired many years ago.

    It totally matters which is why it is futile to have secular authority in charge. Thought crime is as much a crime as a crime, the Tenth Commandment teaches us. In the meantime I'll go back to coveting my neighbors Burgundy collection.

    Man, I really wanted to like that but I am flat out of positive karma until the first of the month recharge.

    I’ve only met BIGUN here, and what I get is a sincere, genuine, honest and decent person. The kind of guy you would want to have a few beers with. That doesn’t mean I automatically buy what he’s selling. In particular his views on abortion are not moderate. As I agree with you that no vote is a vote for Trump, and at a time it could hardly matter more, I consider that as far from moderate as it gets. So being a moderate is what he’s currently selling and I’m not buying it. Those positions are to the right of moderate in my opinion.
  9. JoeWeber
    Sadly, too many so called moderate republicans today believe they have inherited rights to credibility from 50 years ago. They do not.
  10. JoeWeber
    Could be that identifying as a Republican meant something different then.

    I can hardly believe that you, an aficionado of the numinous, could say such an insensitive thing. Surely you didn't. Surely you have picture books showing all of the beautiful flowers in an alpine tundra and young foxes bounding playfully in every room at home and at the food bank where you toil away feeding the poor.

    The case against Trump was clearly super solid if you followed it. There was not a scintilla of doubt that he committed election fraud. So instead of indulging in wishful thinking, just take a look at what your political party has become. Mike Johnson is emblematic of the self serving corruption and rot in the Republican party as are the congressional toady's who lined up dutifully to claim Biden did it and that it's a travesty of justice. Republicans all.
  13. JoeWeber
    Hardly. votevets wants to put veterans in the Congress, Senate, and our state houses. Currently of 82 veterans serving in the House 62 are republicans. Of the 17 serving in the Senate 11 are republicans. Hows that been working for you?
  14. JoeWeber
    Compared to Mattis or Kelly getting out front and loud now when it's conceivable Trump will be elected, sending $250 to vote vets seems futile to me. The pleasure I get from watching Jasmine jab those asshats in congress is worth every bit of $250. The problem is that when those senior military officers who could make a difference, who served Trump and have direct knowledge, won't scream crap if they just bit a turd it seems especially futile. Tell you what, if BIGUN changes his registration to Democrat I'll send the $250 to votevets.
  15. JoeWeber
    Maybe the market for big ass freight trucks is less determined. So where you been? At the Biden/Harris show in Philly?
  16. JoeWeber
    Military votes. It's possible some of those folks might listen to reason from a respected officer, just like a local MAGA veteran might listen to a respected veteran who said enough's enough and changed parties to show it's real.

    The Golden Years for becoming 18 were between 1974 and 1983, why wouldn't someone choose to be born between 1966 and 1975? If I'd have thought about it I would've. Now I'm screwed.
  18. JoeWeber
    Frankly, and until I see a crap load of evidence to the contrary, I'm guessing that like a lot of our serving and discharged military he's kind of okay with a little bit of liberal head knocking, especially if it will knock a little Jesus into us. They don't fear an emerging autocracy as the citizenry might; they're fighters not snowflakes. Also, until the freshly minted autocrat has enough time to consolidate power in the military to start the purging they feel somewhat safe knowing that the autocrat knows that only the military has coup power. So how's about you call General Mattis as retired military and pitch the bitch?
  19. JoeWeber
    Another excellent idea. Maybe I'll ask Jasmin Crockett to give back the $250 I gave her and send it to votevets. Can't give money to everyone, you know, especially when it's futile. Better, how about if the Generals who were right there in the middle of the dumpster fire disaster and have credibility in spades and diamonds, from their hearts, use their stars and clubs to help keep the country from collapsing into autocracy? Or do you think that's futile, too?
  20. JoeWeber
    What an excellent idea! Should I speak to each one individually so it seems like a bigger group than less than 10% of all vets? Another problem, IMO. In any case none of that amounts to a drip off an ice cream cone compared to what Mattis, Milley, Kelly etc.. could do to peel conservative votes away from Trump, I think, if they would just get out there hard and personal now and on any news outlet that would have them and I suspect all would.
  21. JoeWeber
    That's trite and I know you get the point. Maybe you and others think just writing in Howdy Doody, anything but a vote for Biden, is protest enough against a potential Trump presidency but I think not. And if I had the bully pulpit those military people who served Trump have I'd be on it. But I'm not that guy. They are and they could cost Trump votes if they chose.
  22. JoeWeber
    Well that's heroic. Have they all been on R&R since? Seriously, no one should be impressed. They should be non stop in the news condemning the dirt bag NOW! Oh, wait, can we read all about it in their books?
  23. JoeWeber
    Trump is certainly awful, thats incontestable. But could you please explain why Biden is truly awful and on the same scale, as you imply, as Trump?
  24. JoeWeber
    But they can be condemned to perdition by a loving God and that's cool? You know, it's that all in your head coveting thing.

    Go tell the Kurds that it's an entirely different way of being blown to bits than artillery and bombs.
